1. Before you work at Vestas, you have to first understand that energy (and especially wind energy) is a very cyclical market. This means that the slightest downturn in the market could easily mean layoffs or have other negative consequences.
2. The company's management seems to make quick, rash decisions that usually aren't the best decisions and have long-lasting negative consequences.
3. There is very little planning for big, important decisions/projects and too much planning for small, not so important decisions/projects.
4. If the wind market turns down again, expect many layoffs and even closures of entire facilities just like in 2012 when the wind industry almost died in the U.S. because the government didn't pass the PTC's (Production Tax Credits) in time.
5. This is very important: be extremely careful if you are relocating to work for Vestas. During the downturn in 2011/2012, Vestas laid off many people that had relocated only a few months earlier. Employees were laid off that had moved their entire families (new schools for kids, new homes, etc.) across the country to Vestas offices/facilities in Colorado and Oregon. If anyone is considering a relocation to work for Vestas, be sure to negotiate a good severance package (at least 6-12 months salary) especially if you have a family. The lack of strategic long-term planning for this specific issue was unbelievable and borderline unethical.
